Civil debt status with non-governmental entities should not normally affect re-entry back into the U.S. for a permanent resident.Without a retainer agreement with this office, there is no attorney client relationship, confidentiality of the attorney client relationship, or responsibility of this office for the case.

No. We all have mortgages, car loans, student loans, credit cards, etc. Many of us owe more than we have and, in some instances, more than we make! America is a nation of debtors. If solvency was a qualification for being admitted to the US or being allowed to remain here, the country would be more than half empty! Even bankruptcy does not affect immigration status so long as there are no criminal charges related to the filing, such as defrauding creditors.
